Representative of Ohanyan-Raffi-Oskanian (ORO) bloc, Vartan Oskanian, who was the former foreign minister of Armenia, on Monday urged the residents of Vanadzor city to take part in the elections slated for April 2, noting that that day will determined the fate of the Armenian people for the coming decades.

“Don’t believe when they say there is no opposition. Yes, we are bad but there is also nobody better than us. Today there is indeed a good pallet and this bloc is represented in that pallet,” he said.

Oskanian also noted that having offices is not important for the ORO bloc leaders: they want to get power in order to serve the people.

“Raffi Hovannisian and Seyran Ohanyan don’t even have a moral right of not making themselves available to you during this important time for our people. You, our people, have invested in us during these years. We have served the country and now we have to return our experience to our people,” he said.
